[08:50] the FAI run normally,but after rebooting i have this prompt "grub>" what this mean?? [08:51] shall i modify the file menu.lst [08:51] za3tout, when the installation is finished, you have a terminal (CTRL+ALT+F2) [08:52] za3tout, there you can view the /tmp/fai/* logfile on the installed machine, what does the logs say ? [08:52] just a minut [08:53] first what can the login and the passwd can be [08:54] after the installation is finished, (CTRL+ALT+F2) gives you a new terminal [08:54] and it does not ask you for a login/passwd [08:54] yes [08:55] mfl_ (~mfl@adonis.fnb.maschinenbau.tu-darmstadt.de) joined #fai.

[08:56] yes [08:57] mfl (~mfl@adonis.fnb.maschinenbau.tu-darmstadt.de) left irc: Ping timeout: 480 seconds [08:57] ok, it's probably a new terminal on your PC, not on the VM [08:57] yes i think so [08:57] type (CTRL+ALT+F7) to return back to the X [08:58] good now [08:58] and on the VM just type (ALT+F2) withou CTRL [08:59] it didnt work [08:59] nice :) , the logs now [09:00] /tmp/fai/* [09:01] no i say it didn't work [09:02] i have the same --> "grub>" [09:04] za3tout: well you'll have to find out how to send ctrl-alt-f2 to your vm without the host system intercepting it, or boot the vm disk image with a live cd and look at /var/log/fai [09:08] i think that i should rboot and ran alt+f2 [09:08] just a minut [09:08] well if you reboot the logs under /tmp will be gone [09:08] you'll have to get at the installed image and check the logs under /var/log/fai [09:10] i found many logs under /tmp/fai/ [09:10] what i will see now [09:10] za3tout: after installaltion, these logs are copied... [09:11] check software.log to see whether you even tried to install something called linux-image, and if so, what went wrong... [09:12] yes and now* [09:16] what does the software.log say ? [09:18] there is a message which told: couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "linux-image-486" [09:18] what this mean [09:18] it means you tried to install a package which doesn't exist [09:19] yes ! how to correct it [09:19] za3tout, mgoetze, i have the same problem too [09:19] incidentally, my lenny system knows about a linux-image-486 package [09:19] when i do 'apt-cache search linux-image-486' it says that the package is available on the repository [09:20] i don't know why FAI is unable to retrieve it form the repository [09:21] shall we make it in some file to take it in consideratio [09:22] so, is the /etc/apt/sources.list in your chroot correct? [09:23] i don't think so sources.list to make the url from where we can get the packages [09:25] but there a file under /srv/fai/config/package_config called FAIBASE i have it there [09:25] i mean the line linux-image-486 [09:27] and i have it in the repository [09:27] what is wrong then? [09:27] your install system is accessing the wrong repository, perhaps? [09:29] I'm using this kernel package: linux-image-2.6-686 [09:30] are you using apt-proxy? [09:31] yes may be .because all the missing packages mentionned in the log file are in the FAIBASE [09:31] no i use the apt-get [09:35] sorry it is aptitude i think this the same [09:36] za3tout, in your chroot, what's the content of /etc/apt/sources.list ? [09:38] the adress of my repository [09:42] does this repo contain a kernel? [09:43] cat /etc/apt/sources.list [10:02] i think i knew where the problem is [10:03] during the installation process, my NIC has a static IP, it should obtain an IP from DHCP server to be able to access my local repository [10:04] hwo can i configure FAI to obtain an IP from DHCP during install process ? any idea ? [10:04] oz__, mgoetze any idea ? [10:05] hm. that's the default [10:05] when you boot with ip=dhcp , iirc [10:05] microtux: you currently boot from CD? [10:06] just change the boot options when grub is active [10:06] oz__, yes, i boot from cd [10:06] how [10:07] boot from CD an press 'e' when you see the boot menu [10:07] ok, then ? [10:07] kardan (~kardan@p54BE3385.dip.t-dialin.net) joined #fai. [10:08] i think i found it, thnx i'll try with it [10:08] do you see an "ip= change that to ip=dhcp [10:09] ok [10:09] or was it ip=auto? [10:09] no it was ip=192.168.1.1 [10:10] microtux: for me dhcp is automatically involved, but then i don't do anything with fai-cd ;) [10:10] mgoetze: fai-cd roxx ;) [10:11] i'm sure it does, i just have no use for it :) [10:32] mgoetze, oz__ i'm not trying to to do a netboot, so i don't think that ip=dhcp should resolve the problem [10:32] i'm trying to perform an installation with a cd, so during install process, FAI should obtain an IP adress from DHCP, not when booting [10:35] microtux: well as you see by default /etc/fai/make-fai-nfsroot.conf has FAI_DEBOOTSTRAP_OPTS="--exclude=dhcp-client,info" [10:36] i'm not sure how this translates to fai-cd as i have no experience with that [10:37] ok, i'll include dhcp-client and rebuild an iso [10:37] microtux: that's not the prob [10:38] you might also need to change the init process or put something in a class or hook script [10:38] ah [10:38] what's the prob ? [10:38] it may be [10:38] but I'd just do a netboot as dhcp will work then, too [10:45] siggg (~jean@tra78-3-82-244-85-196.fbx.proxad.net) joined #fai.
